  # allow all LAN users to connect to DMZ mail server
  iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth2 -p tcp --syn --dport 25 \
    -s 192.168.0.0/24 -d 10.0.0.2 -j ACCEPT

  # allow special machine to send mail directly to internet
  iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -p tcp --syn --dport 25 \
    -s $special_machine_IP -j ACCEPT

assuming you're running a "deny all, allow specific" type rulebase,
you're done.  if you're running an "allow all" rulebase, you'll need to
add:

  iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -p tcp --syn --dport 25 -j REJECT

-j
